Remove Mobile Firefox Button Gradient
If you have an Android device, you've gotta check out Firefox for Android. It's an outstanding mobile browser -- it has been very well received and you can even install apps from the Firefox Marketplace from within this awesome browser. One usability practice implemented by Firefox for Android is a gradient shade on all button elements. While I appreciate the idea, I don't necessarily want this added to elements which I want to look a very specific way. Removing this gradient effect is simple:
/* Cancels out Firefox Mobile's gradient background */
button {
background-image: none;
}
Before you jump on Mozilla for this practice, WebKit-based browsers do something very similar. Preventing this effect is also very simple so if you want to remove this gradient, use the code above and you're on your way!
